| | |  Potions class two
And once again, you enter the dank, dark cave that is the Hogwarts potions classroom... but something has changed. Unlike the environment of the previous class, which was characterized by a clash of noxious odors, this time the classroom is filled with...
THE BEST. SMELLS. EVER.
Though the room is still cast in the typical gloom from the flickering candle wall sconces, unlike during the last class this time the air smells sweet, with notes of chocolate, vanilla, fresh coffee, light florals and fresh breezes, newly cut grass... A thousand lovely scents all harmoniously combining to create a symphony of sweet smells. Small flames are burning under a series of cauldrons simmering at the back of the room, and there are the typical rows of workstations with two stools at each station.
A thousand and three jars, canisters, and containers of potions ingredients line the shelves along the walls, gleaming dully in the low light. Each is labelled in the Professor's shaky old man's script, and at the back of the room are shelves groaning under the weight of huge potions encyclopedias and texts.
At the front of the classroom, a large charmed chalkboard stands. On it are written these simple instructions: Quote: POTIONS CLASS: LOVE POTIONS
Please be seated. The professor will be here momentarily. Be certain that you have all your potions equipment with you; failure to do so may cost your House points. If you are an older student who is familiar with Potions you may set up your workstation. I expect my younger students are now able to set up their workstations as well; if you need help, please ask an older student.
You may talk quietly amongst yourselves, but please keep the conversation to a reasonable level out of respect for your classmates. Thank you. --Professor Kazimeriz Class Synopsis:
The class began with a discussion on Love Potions- the theory behind them and their classification.
Then, the students discussed probable ingredients in love potions based on their knowledge of potion ingredients; this lead to the lab assignment, in which the students were to partner with a person of the opposite gender and brew a basic Class XX love potion.
The students received instruction on how to remove infused oils from their pre-treated lovage seeds, and were instructed to work in pairs to complete this task.
Next, the students were instructed to add a single drop of swan blood to the potion, bottled a draught, and sample each other's work. Ah... Love!

He was definitely forgetting his reluctance to drink the potion because now, all he could think about was that it smelled fantastic, so how much better would it taste?
Mmmm. Everything she had been smelling earlier - butterbeer and wand polish, just to name a few - seemed to intensify with each stir of the spoon. Coupled with the hypnotic rotation of the swirling potion, the effects soon overwhelmed the small child, setting in feelings of warmth and security. Exhaustion from worrying only worsened her sleepy state, and she was fading... "Wha-?!" She exclaimed, awoken by the sound of Tiberius's voice. Dazed, she looked at him groggily, then at the spoon, which he was holding out as much as one possibly could hold out while still stirring. "Oh! Right!"
Wesley scrambled closer, taking the spoon in stride and continuing with the rotation. She knew she was supposed to be stirring it enthusiastically. But maybe it was the potion getting thicker, or the fact that she couldn't take anything seriously in this state, because the spoon felt so heavy in her hands, and she had to put a real conscious effort into mixing.
Smiling at Tibi's 'mmmming,' Wesley asked, in a broken, foggy sort of way as she tried to pay attention to stirring fast, "What...do....you smell?"

House unity. Yay. It was probably wrong that Jake felt a little surge of jealousy when he saw Cela watching Cope. She was the guy's girlfriend after all... Jake shouldn't be feeling jealous. And as happy as he was to help someone else, whilst the boy was stirring, Cela was helping some other chick... and he just felt...
Nevertheless, though he felt slightly left out, Jake continued stirring at top speed even though he thought his arm might fall off. And it was definitely getting slightly thicker now.
The boy didn't say a word, just glanced every now and then.

The boy didn't say a word, just glanced every now and then. Cela peeked at Jake and gave him a smile as she flicked her eyes to their cauldron. He was doing all the work really, and she appreciated it in a big way. "Smells good." She whispered and then got the pin ready to help Delana.

She got herself ready. "Allright." Delana held out the next seed.. "One... Two... Three." Again she peeled open the seed and held it as still as humanly possible to make poking it easier.

"Swap now?"

These potions classes were getting to be more and more of problem as days passed. Though he enjoyed brewing them, the place and results were always stressing. The only good thing was that he had Rose beside him who would take him under control in case he freaked out.
Getting back to the class work he responded the Slytherin girl's smile with his wider one and put on the gloves she gave him. ''There are uncomfortable and i feel clumsy with them'' deifinitely he was not feeling like he could manage doing this comfortaby and perfectly with them but he heard the professor, the oil might hurt the skin. Once he was done and ready he faced Rose ''Okay i'm ready peel it'' Keeley watched as Josh eyed him. She could tell what he was thinking, and she felt the exact same way. She could definately tell that he had a thing for Rose, and she didn't want to get in the way of that. She knew he wouldn't have control over what she was saying, but these things still do cause problems. Cursing the professor under her breath, she watched carefully as her partners started peeling the seeds.

Sorry if I got in the way." The potion started getting thicker and she was suddenly glad she worked out on somewhat of a regular basis . . .but the previous potions experience probably didn't hurt either...

But he wasn't about to admit that. "Let me know when you get tired." he said. The potion looked like it was on the verge of boiling again and the potion was getting pretty thick. They'd be done soon.

Soooooooooooooo MANY nice smells were coming from everywhere now and Cela busied herself sitting on her hands (so she wouldn't attempt to try hers and Jake's potion) and sniffing.

"Chocolate. And books. Old musty books." Another deep breath. "Maybe... strawberries? And.. and.. the smell that comes with the very beginning of fall." Tibi smiled. It smelled.. like a perfect day? Like... happiness? Like... love?
Opening his eyes, Tibi leaned back and watched as the potion continued to thicken and, ever so subtly, began to chance color.

Delana said smiling, forcing herself to stir faster. "Your potion is smelling extrememly good... just saying." She laughed a little, of course it did, it was a love potion, duh.

And it definitely had the consistency fo maple syrup. And boy, did it smell good!! She could smell Rafe...Mmmmmmm...
"Yes, I think we make a great team!" She said with a smile, not really registering what was going around her. The events of last week were coming back to her...hopefully, she wasn't drooling! "It is," Fyo said, with a nod. His mother sometimes called him a creature of the water, and he liked that sort-of-title. He was an expert swimmer - but then again, that figured: his hometown was certainly one of nature's strongholds. Water courses, trees, open skies - ahh.
"We do," he agreed, with half a grin. He looked down into the cauldron again, and more scents seem to rise from it - the scent of dusts that sprung into one's breath with the arrival of winter; of cloth, brought fresh from the market; of powdered sandstone and of roads after rains.
"These scents are delicious!" He said suddenly, looking up at Lucy. "They feel like Heaven - I can smell all sorts of amazing things. Like new books and wet mud after the rain. What about you?"

This is great." he said taking a big whiff. It smelled like strawberries, fresh cut grass, mountain air, and something that smelled oddly like shampoo. He brushed that one aside. He noticed the potion had turned super thick. He put his hand on the upper end of the spoon and helped Marilyn stir. It would be done soon.

Fyo listened to her, hand on the stirrer as she closed her eyes and began to speak. Those sounded like some beautiful scents, he had to think. When she opened her eyes, he grinned at her.
"Those are some very pretty scents," he told her,with a smile. "I can smell fresh parchment and fresh grass, too. Plus, that scent that rises when you water the ground... this potion is amazing!"
He actually wanted to drink it!

She considered herself to be pretty strong for a girl...but this potion was ridiculously thick...And her muscles just weren't cutting it. Seeing her partner sniff at the concoction, she became slightly curious. The smell was suppose to vary from person to person...Whatever's attractive to that person's senses. Chancing a sniff, her nose was quickly assaulted with the fresh scent of mint and chocolate, with an underlying touch of...egg nog? How odd...It was rather intoxicating, however, and made Marilyn's mouth water. In fact, it smelt so good she was tempted to taste it. Whoa, girl. LOVE POTION! Take breaths with your mouth! | |

Carter smiled and took over the stirring. Soon the potion felt like he was trying to stir maple syrup and he had to lean back in order to fight the temptation to drink it. "Well, it looks like we're done." he said taking a seat on his stool. "Still nervous about drinking it?" he asked watching her smell it.

"Still nervous about drinking it?" he asked watching her smell it. Marilyn sighed softly in relief. She didn't think she could handle stirring anymore. Settling back on a stool, she took a few deep breaths with solely her mouth. This wonderful smelling potion would be the death of her. "Actually, im more nervous...I don't know about you...but I could down the whole cauldron. It smells..." She paused, thinking back on the delightful smell..."Unlike anything I've ever smelt."

These potions classes were getting to be more and more of problem as days passed. Though he enjoyed brewing them, the place and results were always stressing. The only good thing was that he had Rose beside him who would take him under control in case he freaked out.
Getting back to the class work he responded the Slytherin girl's smile with his wider one and put on the gloves she gave him. ''There are uncomfortable and i feel clumsy with them'' deifinitely he was not feeling like he could manage doing this comfortaby and perfectly with them but he heard the professor, the oil might hurt the skin. Once he was done and ready he faced Rose ''Okay i'm ready peel it'' Smiling, she gently peeled back the outer shell with her pale fingers. "Remember, you have to be quick about it. And also remember that you stir it three times clockwise." she spoke quietly, still keeping her focus on the seed before glancing up at him. This has got to be the worst potions class in all of history. Her mind was still reeling from thoughts that the Professor might make them drink the potion. It would have been fine, even great, but now there was a new member in their group, and Evelyn wouldn't be able to handle it if he..."Alright. Go." | |

"Alright, let's try this again." LouAnn repeated the steps once again, and when she was done, she leaned over and held the seed out to Cope. "Alright, Cope! Get it!" she quietly exclaimed. He had the pin in hand this time when LouAnn broke open the seed, and it was simple work to pierce the hilum and extract the oil onto their measuring spoon. This really wasn't all that complicated, but somehow they were still moving pretty slowly.
"You add this oil to the potion while I get the next seed ready. We're almost done... again!"
